LIV.

Of these few could say more than has been said;

They passed as such things do, for superstition

With some, while others, who had more in dread

The theme, half credited the strange tradition;

And much was talked on all sides on that head:

But Juan, when cross-questioned on the vision,

Which some supposed (though he had not avowed it)

Had stirred him, answered in a way to cloud it.
